    I know a lot has been said about Cotto's face s/p his fight with Margarito. What was everyone's opinon about it? Were they simply due to his tight shell defense in which his arms or gloves were simplying being banged into his face by Margarito? Or was Margarito's punches in the later really starting to mark Cotto up? Or something else? Vote and comment.

    They were burn marks from the gloves. My friend's cousin met Miguel Wednesday in New York (not sure what he was doing back in NYC since he flew back to PR after the fight) and said that he didn't have any noticeable swelling on his face, only a few scrapes and bruises.
